LGBT Websites for Istanbul and Turkiye (Turkey)


Gay Nightlife in Istanbul

Istanbul Gay Bar
Majority of the gay bars and clubs are located in and around Taksim and Beyoglu. 


Contrary to expectations, gay bars in Istanbul are not inexpensive, unlike other everyday items. This is primarily due to high taxes and the relatively lower drinking habits of Turkish people, as well as the smaller capacity of clientele in gay bars. Consequently, the prices of drinks would be twice as expensive in gay bars compared to the regular cafes and pubs in the vicinity. Hence, don’t automatically assume that you’re being overcharged just because you’re a tourist.
